Review Summary

Kem CoBa is widely regarded as one of the premier ice cream destinations in Montreal, celebrated for its high-quality artisanal gelato, sorbets, and rotating soft serve flavors. Visitors frequently praise the shop for its unique and creative flavor combinations, particularly the Vietnamese-inspired options like pandan and salted cream, which offer a refreshing and authentic taste profile. While the shop is famous for its long lines and a strictly cash-only payment policy that requires advance preparation, many patrons find the experience well worth the wait. The vibrant community atmosphere, friendly service, and commitment to fresh, well-balanced ingredients make it a must-visit spot in the Mile End neighborhood, though some guests suggest checking the menu in advance as popularity can occasionally lead to varied personal experiences.

I love this place, they make lots of unique flavours & many are geared towards Asian flavours, such as pandan & soursop. The gelatos & sorbets are well made & have a rich but not overly sweet taste. My favourites are pandan & mango sorbet. Please note that they're only open during the summer months (closes in September) & only take cash. Be aware that there may be lineups, but it is worth it!

Les sorbets & crèmes glacées sont excellentes. On comprend pourquoi la plupart du temps il y a une file. Les saveurs sont originales (juste ce qu'il faut) & très bonnes. Le prix reste raisonnable au vu de la qualité & de la quantité servie.

The line was intimidating but moved rather fast. They have an immaculate service system to help process people through. I had the soursop sorbet (acidic & fermented taste) & the pandan leaf (floral vanilla notes) ice cream & my mom got the salted butter & dulce de leche ice cream. I like that there is a balance of more approachable flavors & some more exotic ones!

Glacier très renommé, il y a souvent une grande queue, paiement seulement en cash, pas très cher, 20,42 dollars taxes comprises pour 4 petites coupes 2 parfums. On peut tester 1 goût avant de choisir. Plusieurs parfums différents souvent originaux & multigouts (miel fleur d'oranger, mangue ananas coco, fruits rouges, framboise rose...).

Voici une place qui sert de la crème glacée de qualité supérieure. Les saveurs proposées sont originales. La texture de la glace, dure ou mole, fait ressortir un sentiment de satisfaction inéluctable. Pour les crèmes dure, je recommande fortement celle à la rose, litchi & framboise ou sinon celle au chocolat 72%. Vous ne regretterez pas. Sinon, pour la crème glacée molle, c'est toujours deux saveurs mélangés dans un twist & les mélanges alternent toutes les deux semaines. Chaque mélange vaut la peine d'être goûté, je n'ai jamais été déçu. Shoutout à Vincent pour nous servir ces délicieuses crèmes glacées!
